There are many types of organic fertilizers on the market in our country. As flowering plants have gradually become popular, many merchants have started to research and develop various types of organic fertilizers. Some organic fertilizers can even be sold for thirty or forty yuan per jin (500g), with all sorts of fancy fertilizers available. Among the many organic fertilizers, the most effective one is still well-fermented chicken manure.

Why is it recommended to choose well-fermented chicken manure? Chickens have the longest intestines in the animal kingdom. Food is completely digested after passing through the intestines for a long time, and the resulting manure basically contains no food residue. After fermentation, it turns into organic fertilizer.
The organic fertilizers sold online, especially chicken manure, are usually the cheapest, with a large bag costing only十几块钱 (around $1.50 - $2.00). For ground-grown flowering plants, using half a jin or a jin of it at a time, watering it and covering it with soil, usually means you won't need to use fertilizer again for the whole year. Chicken manure, after being decomposed by microorganisms in the soil, maintains its fertilizer effect for a relatively long time.
If you live in the countryside and have chickens, ducks, or geese in your yard, the manure produced can be placed in the sun to dry. Once the manure is completely turned into a powdery state, it can also be used as an organic fertilizer. Naturally fermented and later sterilized by the sun, it can be used as fertilizer in the soil or for planting vegetables.
